Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GAB A) is a ubiquitous non-protein amino acid synthesized via
the decarboxylation of L-glutamate in a reaction catalyzed by the cytosolic enzyme L-glutamate
decarboxylase (GAD). In animals it ...

GABA (y-amino butyric acid) is a non-protein amino acid synthesized through
the a-decarboxylation of L-glutamate. This reaction is catalyzed by L-glutamate
decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.15), a cytosolic Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated ...

Rapid and large accumulation of GABA (y-aminobutyric acid) in response to a number of
plant stresses has been well documented. But the role(s) of GABA in plants is not well defined. In
recent years, the possibility of ...
